People are being killed in Iraq every day by this conflict, the country is still under the military rule of a foriegn power, the various factions cannot make peace with each other, terrorist attacks strike on an almost daily basis... American soldiers are being murdered every week, there are widespread shortages of many things, no clear leadership and no prospect of it, the three major players in Iraqi social life gearing up for a fight... is this what you call peace and rebuilding? Iraq is on the verge of all out implosion, and is only being held together by an occupation force of soldiers who are hated by most of the people there. Meanwhile, Iraqi natural resouces are being exploited by American corporations (as opposed to Hussain's ruling party) and the people are as poor as ever.
